Sickos – Republicans Raising Money from Made Up Benghazi Scandal

I bet you never thought they’d go this low. Republicans are sending out fundraising emails in their sick and twisted charade, essentially profiting from the death of 4 Americans in Benghazi Libya. And not even the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, John Boehner, had an excuse for his party’s low-down, dirty, money-making venture.

The main question brought to him today at a press conference, was why were Republicans using Benghazi to raise money. Boehner dodged the question.

“Our focus is on getting the answers to those families who lost their loved ones, period,” Boehner (R-Ohio) said repeatedly when asked multiple times whether Republicans should stop citing the attacks in fundraising pitches.

The National Republican Congressional Committee this week has used e-mail blasts and a blog post meant to collect contact information and solicit donations in an attempt to capitalize on the reemergence of the attacks.

Those efforts come as House Republicans work to structure a select committee to further investigate the Obama administration’s handling of the attacks that left four Americans dead.

Democrats have accused Republicans of resurrecting the investigation into the Benghazi attacks as a way to score political points with their base — a charge fueled even further once the campaign committee began soliciting money by mentioning the attacks.

“Fundraising off the Benghazi tragedy is despicable and insulting and has no place in the national conversation,” Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Steve Israel said in a statement released Thursday.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
